Entry 7

Couldn’t remember any dreams this morning, so here are a couple entries never posted before from the end of August 2019:

29 Aug 2019 Thursday.

I dreamt I was devouring this grilled fish. A dourada, or golden bream. But I wasn’t eating the whole thing, I was just focusing on the fatty parts. But I couldn’t seem to find those parts, or I couldn’t get them or couldn’t be satiated by them.

31 Aug 2019 Saturday.

Dream yesterday was me running through a dry rocky valley. It was hot, sun high up in the middle of the day. A fleet of jet fighters up in the sky. Had the impression they were hunting me. . . I didn’t really feel in danger or afraid in the dream, though. I wouldn’t say I was hiding exactly, but I was sort of bouldering through the dry river valley in stealth.

Dream today was me in NYC, at some busy intersection, Times Square maybe. It was about to rain. I carry or have with me an American flag. I try to put it up a flagpole before the rain starts. I reach up, thunder and lightning crack through the sky and skyscrapers. I realize the lightning could hit the pole and electricute me. The slippery half of the top of the flagpole fell, but I pick it up and reach back up to put it on the standing pole. A cop across the street yells at me, I guess telling me not to put it up due to the storm. He was holding an AK-47 rifle, or one of those military-grade automatic rifles. He starts to shoot up at the sky. There’s another cop behind me, I sense, though I don’t see him in the dark. No one tries to stop me as I reach up to raise the flag. . .
